You still should be able to.  If you haven't started your 2022 return yet, you can just log in (using the same username and password for 2020), then enter some of the first basic info for 2022.  This allows you to access prior year returns.  Please note that you MUST use the same TT account as you did in 2020 in order to view that return.

 

See the TurboTax FAQ I'm linking below for info on where you'll go from there.

 

How do I view and download a prior year return

Ahhhh YESSSSSS.

It worked in the past but didnt work now until AFTER entering some data for the 2022 year.

Now it works. What an annoying and obscure bug. Thank you so much.

My pleasure.  But it's not a bug.  Just the way TurboTax is doing it now.
